Interesting Notes

A passionate collector of plants, French breeder Thierry Delabroye enjoys finding an exceptional plant and then working to improve it. He knows that pretty flowers and foliage are only the beginning for a great plant. It must also be reliable for growers and gardeners. to that end he has returned to the vigorous and long-lived species Heuchera villosa as a parent for his outstanding line of hearty and beautiful Heucheras.

Growing and Maintenance Tips

These new Heuchera hybrids are widely adaptable and can be grown in shade or sun. In sun they will need plenty of moisture to look their best and they really prefer protection from intense mid-day rays.

Rich organic soil with good drainage is best, but again these selections are adaptable to many conditions and will tolerate heavier soil or root competition. Wet soils are not tolerated.
